I have very little confidence I’ll get a retirement. Even though I’m contributing to the Canada Pension Plan, I’m so far away that by the time I get there I have serious doubts the program will still exist. There is obviously calculations they make to determine the health of the fund, but I don’t think they are properly taking into account how much extra strain extended life expectancies will take on the program. If they plan for people to be on retirement for an average of 15 years, and suddenly that changes to 20 or 25 years, that fund will dry up quick. Combine that with the influx of boomer retirees and to me it doesn’t look so good.

Apparently one guy survived, it’s early on so I wouldn’t be surprised if the story changes but he was in the exit row and allegedly jumped from the plane before impact, which is insane if true.

Not that I’ve ever heard of, at least in the area of aviation I deal with. You might ‘dock’ it at an airport with mechanical ramps, but even then you’d usually just say taxi to the ramp or parking.

Camp David Accords? 13 days of negotiations with the US, Israeli, and Egyptian leaders of the time? I think the Dayton agreement was similar too. Leaders are involved in this stuff, not always but it’s certainly not unusual either.

Not the original commentor, but the people I’ve discussed this with usually say one of 4 things. These aren’t necessarily my views, just what I’ve heard from others:

1. The government is too easy on crime and we grant people bail who are dangerous to release.
2. Gun control is a waste of time and money and isn’t tackling the real issue as nearly all gun crime isn’t committed by legal gun owners.
3. More housing needs to be made (note that both major parties seem to agree on this).
4. More infrastructure needs to be built to capitalize on our oil and natural resources exports.

I don’t think he actually said that though, the only quote I saw that included the word dumb was “It’s not in my habit to agree with The Wall Street Journal. Donald, they point out that even though you’re a very smart guy, this is a very dumb thing to do”.

The pain in his expression was the most relatable thing I’ve seen from a world leader possibly ever.

if they return

Well, easy solution for that I guess.

Absolutely fucked. They already had 3 kids but they needed to kill 2 innocent people so they could have another? And their response is “I made a big mistake”? Bitch you killed 2 refugees and stole a child, that’s more than a mistake. Do they not have work collegues or friends who might have questioned a child appearing suddenly? I seriously don’t understand how two people manage to get to this point without realizing how absolutely psychotic they’ve become.

Grotuesquely enough one tabloid called the suspects father and started asking “why he did it”. He hadn’t even heard of the crime on the news yet.

Jesus christ, imagine finding out your son is the perpetuator of a horrific shooting and is dead from a tabloid reporter. I have way more sympathy for the families of the actual victims but it’s still awful for the father.

Glad to know my career and income is at risk because of some poor presidents feelings.
